I haven't seen a better tactical shooter than Hidden&Dangerous 2 which came out 10 years ago.
Anything better than this out now or is it time for replay?
H&D2 got released at the same time as Call of Duty unfortunately, so it passed under the radar and got largely ignored.
It was made by the Illusion, developers of Mafia. Why i like it:
1st or 3rd person, plus a tactical isometric view for more detailed commands.
Amazing atmosphere, sound, graphics and presentation.
You control SAS. Not American or Russian or Japanese. And it represents a different war front. Very refreshing.
Great level variety. Small and large, all nonlinear and open ended.
Diverse mission objectives and how to approach them.
Large selection of authentic weapons and gadgets that feel great.
Inventory management and your men all have skills.
Co-op single player.
Stealth option. Stealing uniforms, have to aware of making noise, being seen.
Ragdolls and motion capture animations. While CoD had soldiers running like ducks and dying like it was Duke3D.
Vehicles. Uses the Mafia engine so all vehicles were great to control and were very solid. You can even blow the tires out.
Vocal commands to your team mates, either loud or silent, which affects your stealth.
4 running and crouching speeds.
